After successful seasons, both the West Bridgewater and Oliver Ames High field hockey teams will prepare for their opening-round South Sectional games this weekend.

A young OA team led by seniors Katie Tighe (tri-captain midfielder) and Carolina Santana (goalkeeper) finished the year 14-2-2, good enough to earn a No. 5 seed in the Div. 1 South Sectionals.

The Tigers will host the winner of No. 12 Medfield (12-4-2) and No. 21 Dighton-Rehoboth (7-7-2) at home Friday at 2:30 p.m.

OA coach Janice Sundell said she doesn’t know much about either potential opponent, a common occurrence during tournament time.

“I’ll try and go to the Internet and get as much info as I can,” said Sundell. “I’ll network with anybody who plays them to find out more.”

Sundell said chemistry is the Tigers’ biggest strength. Most of her players play club together in the off-season.

On the field, OA is led by junior defender Kara Arnold, who is a two-year varsity starter; captain Molly Cunha, a right-wing goal scorer; and sophomore Hannah Friend, who leads the team in points with 18 (12 goals, six assists).

“We’re a young team,” said Sundell. “I think that helps because they don’t freak out too much or they don’t really get nervous.”

The Wildcats (14-1-3) earned the No. 3 seed in the Div. 2 South Sectionals.

On Sunday, WB will host the winner of No. 6 Foxboro (11-4-3) and No. 11 Medway (7-4-3) at Bridgewater-Raynham High at 1 p.m.

The Wildcats have been led by Emma Kincaid, Ally Mills, Priscilla Martinez and Ashley Congdon.
